CIA has dna on all leaders. Its easy, pay a guy to take a used coke can from him. Simple as that.

Perhaps they compared his to those obtained from his dead sons.

What's really pathetic is that this is the first place I heard the news.

I gotta mix in a USA Today link once in a while. :rolleyes:

Don't know but I think they did an interview with her on 60 minutes or something... She was paid by us to get a "sample"...

Well whatever sample it was, the conspiracy theorists would have had the ammo that maybe it wasn't the real thing. Maybe she working both sides.

The good thing is - that with his sons being killed before he was - we can verify and prove for sure it is him because we have multiple test samples now.
